Just bought a used Pen EP5. How careful do I have to be when using it?

I am an EP-5 user for 3 years now, both my front and rear dial eventually failed after 2 years, luckily I got them fixed by Olympus in Bangkok very cheaply, about $30USD, and working fine ever since.

Even when the dials were not functioning, I still manage to use it in manual mode by using the arrow buttons on the back, the up down left right keys all can be used instead of the dials, you can see the indication on the display for where to press to adjust aperture or shutter speed.
